Somebody Stop Me!!!

I did a massive couponing haul this Sunday at CVS. I definitely am done for the week already! I never got this addicted when I started about a year ago, but it’s like there are way too many good deals out there (And the rainchecks don’t help when the right coupons come out)!

I’ll post the breakdown of each transaction below the picture as usual, and again, not everything is pictured, unfortunately. Also , this year I am going to do a monthly total of how much I’ve spent so far and how much everything would have been regular price without coupons or sales at the bottom of my posts.

I did four different transactions this time, only because I got some last minute stuff before we closed for the night, and I did the other three on my break (yay for packing my lunch so I would have time!). Also, I am once again using an asterisk to indicate clearance items.
